Remove the /accept command from SWG. Make it so you have to press a button to join a group, and that join only stays up a few minutes.


Macro writers will get around this by using the '/ui actiondefaultButton' to join groups AFK, of course.


That's when the Image Designercomes in. They invite the AFKTainer to group, make changes, which their macro autoaccepts.This leavesthe AFKtainer fat and unattractive, and people are forced to watch their flabby, mismatched,unattractive AFKtainer, or the real Entertainer dancing beside them. Which do you think they'll choose?


The only thing missing is we need a way to write 'Carnival Sideshow' on the AFKtainers face. Maybe this could be added in? A simple checkbox would be easy to add.

I have seen a lot of solutions to afktainers, but this has got to be the one that would bring me the most joy!

I've always been a fan of the Squad Leader / Combat Medic solution…"Have some wounds, sucker!"

The problem is if you don't have a big enough brick or can't find the right head. The devil is in the details.

Very good!


Solution 2:


Make the same command that accepts groups be the one that accepts duels, as well. That way Cantinas would be like a the Cantina actually seen in Episode IV. Occassionally a fight breaks out and someone dies.

I thought they already were like that But really, do we want that if we don't get to see limbs get hewn off?

Beautiful! and it will only affect those who do it ALL afk, not the ones who go afk for short periods of time. I remember when my very first entertainer character was working on dancer... and there was ONE person in the group who put a beg for a heal in their macro... we looked at the character (who had no damage) and laughed at it. Now, not only do the majority have their macros beg for heals, they beg for tips and invites to join groups. I wonder how they can fail to realize that all they are accomplishing is to get themselves on /addignore lists.
